"So This is Paris" is nothing short of perfection, an absolute joy from
start to finish. I saw it for the first time very recently and I was
overawed by it. Without a doubt, it ranks as one of the great
Lubitsch's finest silent films, up there with "Die Puppe", "The Oyster
Princess", "Rosita", "The Marriage Circle", "Lady Winderemere's Fan"
"The Student Prince In Old Heidelberg" and "Eternal Love". All the
familiar Lubitsch touches and themes are here: gaiety, enchantment,
naughtiness, cynicism, extramarital affairs, manage a trois, etc. The
standout moment is the Charleston sequence at a Parisian ball, where
people are dancing and jumping. Lubitsch uses multiple camera angles
and superimposition to create a feeling of joy and excitement.
